Good morning dear, I think I'm losing itCan't find my way and I'm, I'm getting used to itSun refused to shine on this side of the streetI'm not recognizing anyone I meetTrying to hide in the shadow of the sunYou're not fooling anyone

Oh, acetoneWon't you ever leave me alone?Oh, acetoneOh, acetone

Look at me and answer truthful nowDid you drink that last spoonful down?She drinks from the bitter cupI'm trying to get her to give it upOh, Lord what have we become?We're not fooling anyone

Oh, acetoneWhy can't she leave you alone?Oh, acetoneOh, acetone

My feet are dragging down on this dusty old roadMy throat is dry and I'm all aloneI remember when we walked side by sideWhen I was parched I would drink in your sightI never meant to make you runI never meant to hurt anyone

Oh, acetoneWhy couldn't you leave us alone?Oh, acetoneOh, acetone

Oh, acetoneWhy wouldn't you leave us alone?

Great topic, Man!

thanx,Logan

I got out of bed today, Swear to God I couldnít see my faceI got out of bed today staring at a ghostWho forgot to float away, didnít have all that much to sayWouldnít even tell me his own nameWhereíd my body go

It seems like yesterday But it was long ago Janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights There in the darkness with the radio playing low And the secrets that we shared The mountains that we moved Caught like a wildfire out of control 'Til there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove And I remember what she said to me How she swore that it never would end I remember how she held me oh so tight Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the wind We were runnin' against the wind We were young and strong, we were runnin' Against the wind

The years rolled slowly past And I found myself alone Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends I found myself further and further from my home And I guess I lost my way There were oh so many roads I was living to run and running to live Never worryied about paying or even how much I owed Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time Breaking all of the rules that would bend I began to find myself searching Searching for shelter again and again

Against the wind A little something against the wind I found myself seeking shelter sgainst the wind

Well those drifter's days are past me now I've got so much more to think about Deadlines and commitments What to leave in, what to leave out

Against the wind I'm still runnin' against the wind I'm older now but still runnin' against the wind Well I'm older now and still runnin' Against the wind Against the wind Against the wind

Still runnin' I'm still runnin' against the wind I'm still runnin' I'm still runnin' against the wind Still runnin' Runnin' against the wind Runnin' against the wind See the young man run Watch the young man run Watch the young man runnin' He'll be runnin' against the wind Let the cowboys ride Let the cowboys ride They'll be ridin' against the wind Against the wind ...

I can finally admit I pretend to say and do nice things so people will think I'm a standout guy.

Driving through the long nightTrying to figure who's right and who's wrongNow the kid has gone. I sit belted up tight,She sucks on a match light, glowing bronze,Steering on.

And I might be more of a manIf I stopped this in its tracks and say come on, lets go home.But she's got the wheel,And I've got nothing except what I have on.

When you're driving with the brakes on,When you're swimming with your boots on,Itís hard to say you love someoneAnd itís hard to say you don't

Trying to keep the mood right,Trying to steer the conversation fromThe thing we've done.She shuts up the ashtray and I say itís a long way back now honAnd she just yawns. And we might get lost someplace so desolate that no one where we're from would ever come

But she's got the wheelAnd I've got to deal from now on.

When you're driving with the brakes onWhen you're swimming with your boots onItís hard to say you love someoneAnd itís hard to say you don't

But unless the moon falls tonight, unless continents collide,Nothing's gonna make me break from her side.

Cos when you're driving with the breaks onWhen you're swimming with your boots onItís hard to say you love someoneAnd itís hard to say you don't...

There are also a few that I relate to, however the most striking for me was a song called 'You' from Janet Jackson's 'Velvet Rope' album. I was stunned by how the lyrics to that song coincided with my life. In fact that entire album really touched me on so many levels. It's a classic for me. The following are the lyrics to 'You'.

Here I am in your faceTellin' truths and not your old liesSeems to me that you careAnd I know that you're runnin' out of timeSee ya can't get awayI'll be here forever and againWhisperin' in your earDo believe 'cause you know you cannot win

Spent most your life pretending not to beThe one you are but who you choose to seeLearned to survive in your fictitious worldDoes what they think of you determine your worthIf special's what you feel when you're with themTaken away, you feel less then again

That's right

Chorus:

You gotta mean what you sayYou gotta say what you meanTryin' to please everyoneSacrifice your own needsCheck in the mirror my friendNo lies will be told thenPointin' the finger againYou can't blame nobody but you

Repeat Chorus

There's a feelin' insideNo you cannot change it right awayGotta make it tryAnd with time it'll start to go awayI'll be here when you needThat one to sit and cry to'Cause I'm the you you forgotThe only one you know you cannot lie to

Bitter you'll be if you don't change you waysWhen you hate you, you hate everyone that dayUnleash this scared child that you've grown intoYou cannot run for you can't hide from youCan't hide from you
